Overview
Starting with Tax year 2015 Employers with 50 or more Full Time Equivalent (FTE) employees issue all
Full Time Employees a 1095-C. In addition they must submit a 1094-C Transmittal Form to the IRS.
Overview of Producing the 1095-C/1094-C without HR. Form 1095-B has a similar process, except that it
applies to Employers who are self insured regardless of size. For details see Appendix E: 1095-B.
Step 1 – Determine if the organization is a Applicable Large Employer (ALE). This means you have 50 or
more FTE employees.
- The criteria for determining if you are a ALE depends on the number of people that you had
working for you during the measurement and stability periods and how many hours they worked.
There is a report under Reports>Payroll>History>Earnings>Summary FTE by Employee. This
report will give you information based on the hours recorded through the year. You should
consult with a qualified tax advisor to determine if you are required to file.
Step 2 – After you have determined that your organization needs to file 1095-C/1094-C you will need to
use Aatrix to record detailed information for the forms.
- MIP will pull limited information for ALL employees into the Aatrix grid. Then you will need to
decide which employees will receive a 1095-C and enter the detailed information
Step 3 – Use Aatrix to Record Employer Information
- The Aatrix 1095 Wizard will ask you for employer information related to the 1095-C. Questions
like if you have self insured coverage, certifications of eligibility and number of forms. Abila
Customer support cannot advise you on the answers to the questions, you should contact a
qualified tax advisor
Step 4- Verify Employees and Employee Data and Fill in Part II of the form 1095-C for each employee.
- ALL employees in the payroll system will pull into a grid. Go through and verify that the necessary
employees are present and remove any employees who should not receive a form. Verify the
employee information such as name and address etc. and fill in their box selections.
Step 5 – Add Employee Covered Individuals
- If any employees are in an Employer Sponsored Self Insured plan and have covered dependents
they need to be added.
Step 6 – If any Employee wants Electronic Delivery of their 1095-C you can enter and verify their email
address. NOTE: You must select the complete filing option for electronic delivery.
Step 7 – Verify Employee Coverage
This step is essentially a repeat of Step 4 with error checking to make sure all required fields are filled
out.
Step 8 – Print and File
- Choose your printing and filing options.
5
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Step 1 – Determine if the organization is a Applicable Large Employer
(ALE).
This means you have 50 or more FTE employees.
One of the provisions of the ACA is that employers who have 50+ Full Time Equivalent
(FTE) are considered to be Applicable Large Employers (ALE) and must offer all full
time employees (30+ hours a week or 130 hours a month) health coverage and report
that offer of that coverage on a 1095-C.
If the employer is self-insured with less than 50 FTE they must give out a form 1095-B.
If an employer is self-insured or not self-insured with more than 50 FTE they must give
out a form 1095-C.
This leads to two reporting questions.
ALE Reporting
To be considered an ALE you must have an average of 50+ FTE in your measurement
period. The purpose of this period is to calculate if you have 50+ FTE.
The measurement period and stability period is a period between 3-12 months that is
selected by the employer. It is supposed to be reasonable and consistent. For more
details about what measurement and stability period works best for your organization
you should contact your tax advisor. Abila Customer Support cannot advise you on what
period of time to use for the measurement period.
If you think that your are on the border of 50+ FTE your best bet for that determination is
to look at your time keeping records. Throughout the year some mechanism outside of
MIP was used to record hours worked, then some of that data may have been put into
MIP. It may be better to look at the raw data rather than the subset that was keyed into
MIP.
If you wish to use MIP to determine how many FTE’s you had there is a report that you
can use. Go to Reports>Payroll>History>Earnings History Report. There is a default
<Summary FTE by Employee>. You would want to change the dates to your
Measurement period. The report will show FTE’s by month for employees that had
hours recorded on their timesheet. Salaried employes who didn’t have hours recorded
on the timesheet will need to be manually added into the count.

2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Who gets a 1095-C?
Once you have determined that you are an ALE, then you have to offer coverage and
give a 1095-C to all Full Time Employees. This means anyone who worked more than
130 hours in any month of the year. Selecting employees who get a 1095-C should not
be confused with your FTE count or measurement period to determine if you are an
ALE. Once you are determined to be an ALE, all employees with 130 hours or more in a
month get a 1095-C. This is true even if they only worked for one month and left the
company or were hired in on the last month. For months that the employee did not work
or was not full time you will still need to fill in the appropriate code on the form.
In addition if you provide insurance to a Part Time Employee they get a 1095-C.
Like determining if the company was a ALE employer the best way to determine if a
employee was full time in a month is to go back and look at the primary records (time
punches, spreadsheets etc) on a month by month basis.

2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Step 2 – Launch Aatrix
Go to Activities>Payroll>Tax Forms and Efiling by Aatrix.
NOTE: You must be in 17.1.1 or later to accomplish this. Only this version or later has
the nessecary programing to fully support the 1095’s. Once on the screen there are
several selections.
1 – Update your forms
When you start out you will not see the 1095’s availible. You must first update your
forms by choosing the form updates button. You should choose the automatic update.
After applying the update you should get out and get back in to see the forms. If you
cannot do the form updates or if you have issues with the form updates see KB 8751 –
Troubleshooting Aatrix Updates.
If you get out and get back in at a later time and see the form update button is still
availbile you should go ahead and update your forms. Aatrix frequently updates forms
several times a week during peak tax times.
2 – Select your Form. You should choose Federal and Form 2015 2095/1094-C. If you
do not see it then you need to update your forms.
3 – Full Time Employees. This selection does not really contribute to the 1095 Process
and should be left at default.
8
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
NOTE: This tag is a best guess with information provided. If hours were not included
with earning codes during the year this may be incorrect.
4 – Select the date range of the forms.
5 – Filters. In most cases filters SHOULD NOT be used. The only time that filters should
be used is if you are doing multiple filings for DIFFERENT Tax ID numbers from the
same database. If that is not the scenario then do not use filters. If you use filters to
break up your filing into different groups for the same Tax ID number it will result in
incomplete filings and duplicate work. DO NOT DO IT!
After you have selected your options click OK and proceed through the aatrix wizard.
The first time through you may wish to test drive the proccess without saving any data.
Anything entered into the test drive will not be saved or filed.
9
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Verify your Tax ID number.
You may need to verify or complete your company information
10
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Designated Government Entity.
In most cases you should choose that you are filing for your company unless you are a
consultant filing for someone else.
Single vs Multiple Data files.
11
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
This selection applies if you are filing for the same EIN from MULTIPLE databases. For
example if you have multiple offices each of which records their payroll in a separate
database but ALL share the SAME EIN number. For more information on this sceanrio
see KB 8061. This KB discusses multiple filing option in the context of 1099/W2 but the
mechanism is the same.
This does not apply when you are filing for multiple EIN’s from the SAME database. For
more instruction on that scenario see KB 12791. This KB discusses multiple filing option
in the context of 1099/W2 but the mechanism is the same.
In most cases you should choose NO.
Step 3 – Use Aatrix to Record Employer Information
The first step in filing the 1095 is to record information about your employer filing
options.
Overview
1 – ALE member information.
Choose which items apply to your filing situation. Selections on this screen will affect
which other sections are availible.
12
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
A) Selecting self insured coverage if your organization is self insured. You should
consult with your tax advisor or plan administrator on how to answer this
question.
B) Selecting foreign addresses will change the error checking to allow for non-US
address codes.
C) Enter total number of 1095-C forms. This will automatically populate but if you
are going to be adding removing forms you will need to adjust this number.
D) Is this the Authoritative Transmial for this ALE Member – An organization might
have multiple sites or locations or departments, each of which produces their
own payroll. But all of them need to be rolled up into one submission. This is a
flag that tells the system if this is the combined submission for the entire
organization or just a partial submission. Unless you are planning on combing
more records into a filing this should be checked.
E) If the Authoritative Transmitall is checked then this option will be availible. In
most cases you would say yes. Exceptions would be if you were filing for some
employees in a different/multiple filing scenario.
F) If you checked yes for the above option this will populate automatically. If the
answer above was no then you will need to put in the number of employees
G) Enter the total number of forms filed for ALL ALE members. This is the count of
the number of 1095-C you will be filing. If you have said YES on question C this
field must have a number. If you are unsure of the number you can change it
later in the review process.
H) Is this employer a member of an Aggregated ALE Group. Related to question C.
If you are the only entity filing for this tax ID number then you should say no. If
you are part of a larger organizational filing you should say yes.
2 – Certifications of Eligablilty
Choose which eligability methods apply to your filing situation. The text is hyperlinked to
the tax code on the IRS website. MIP Support cannot advise you which options to check
(more than one may apply). You should consult with your tax advisor about this
selection.
3- ALE information monthly
This is a month by month summary of the employee count, coverage and relief
selections. The employee count will pull in based on the selection method in Step 2.
13
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Understand that is is a best guess based on the hours availible in payroll. If employees
were paid without recording hours it may not be correct. You can change this value by
typing in the correct information.
4 – Errors
When going through the Aatrix wizard the system will do error checking on your entry to
make sure all required information is selected (not that the information is correct). If
there is a problem you will see an error message here along with what is required to
correct it.
5 – Tips for completing this section.
6 – Section navigator
When you are done with a section go here to move to the next option as well as view
your progress through the wizard. Click Next Step to move to the next section.
14
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Step 4- Verify Employees and Employee Data.
1 – Verify Employee information
This grid will show ALL employees pulled in from payroll. It will pull in all employees
regardless if they are full time or part time or if they have information from HR or not.
The reason for this is to accomidate all possible use case scenarios. Some employers
may not have properly entered hours into MIP throughout the year for the system to
make an accurate determination if they are full time or part time. Therefore the system
pulls all employees into the grid so the user has a final chance to make that
determination. Employees who are not required may be removed.
Deleting Records
To remove a record right click on the row and choose Remove.
If you need to remove multiple records right click and choose Remove Multiple.
15
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
This will let you select and Delete Multiple Records.
Adding Records
If you removed someone by mistake it may be best to get out of Aatrix and then get
back in without saving any changes. This will pull the information in from the beginning.
If that is not feasable or if the record was not pulled into the grid in the first place it is
possible to add additional reocrds. You would Right Click and choose Add. This will add
a new row in the grid at the bottom. You will need to fill out all the fields manually.
2 – Plan Seleciton information
This section allows you enter information about the coverage values you are selecting
for the employee. There is an option to make a selection for the entire year or month by
month depending on which columns you select.
16
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
If you choosea value in the “All Year” columns then you will not have to make an
selection each month.
A- The coverage offer is chosen from the dropdown list form the valid list of options.
MIP Support cannot explain what the options are or which option you should
select. For assistance with this you should contact your tax advisor.
B- Employee Share – This will be required if the coverage offer is 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E,
1J, 1K. It is not required for 1A, 1F, 1G, 1H, 1I. This amount is what the
employee would pay for their portion of the lowest cost monthly premium for self
only coverage that meets the minimum standards. This is not nessecarily what
the employee is paying as they might have dependants or selected a better plan.
This informaiton WILL NOT automatically pull from any field in MIP or HR. You
will have to determine this value and enter it.
C- Safe Harbor Code – If the Employer provides self insurance coverage to that
employee Safe Harbor Codes may be used. If the employer does not provide self
insured coverage these are not required. Employees may be checked as covered
by Employer Sponsored Self Insurance in a column in the employee information
(Section 1).
17
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Any information entered in these sections will show up below in the detail section.
For an IRS definition of the diffent Coverage offer and Safe Harbor Codes see this link.
https://www.irs.gov/instructions/i109495c/ar01.html#d0e1062
Question: If I have a lot of information is it possible for me to import this information into
Aatrix?
Answer: Yes, if you have information in a CSV file it may be possible to import it. See
Appendix B: Importing 1095.
Question: If I have a lot of information is it possible for me to Copy/Paste this
information in?
Answer: Yes, it is possible to copy and paste with some limitations. See Appendix C:
Copy/Paste Information into the Grid.
3 – Add/Remove Employees
You can use this feature to Add or Remove employees from the grid.
To remove an employee, select the employee and click Remove Employee.
Add Employee will create a new line on the grid. Employee informaiton can be entered
into the grid or in the detail window down at the bottom.
18
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
4 – Detail Employee Information
5- Detail Information. This is the same infomration as what is in Section 2 of the grid
but in a detailed format for easier reading. . Information can be changed or updated
here. Any changes you make will flow back up to the grid and any changes in the grid
will flow down to this form. Users may find it easier to enter information in the detail
form.
6 – Covered Dependents – This is best addressed in the next step.
19
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Step 5 – Add Employee Covered Individals/Dependants
If any employees are selected for Employer-Sponsored Self Insurance it is possible that
they may need to recorded any dependants that are covered. For this option to be used
you must have selected YES for the “does this employer provide self insurance
covarage”.
In addtion you have to choose the Employer-Sponsored Self Insured Coverage checked
on the employee record.
If HR was used and properly configured this information would pull in. If not they will
need to be individually entered. Click on the Add Covered Individual to add them as a
sub record of the employee.
Fill in their information and any coverage elections.
This process can also be initaed via the Sidebar buttons.
You will not be able to proceed if there are any errors that need to be fixed. Look in the
error box on the right sidebar. Any errors will reference specific employee SSN’s.
20
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Step 6 – Electronic Delivery Preferences
It is possible that employees can receive their 1095-C only via email. This requires that
you use the complete filing option (detailed later) and that the Electronic Only box is
checked. Employers are also supposed to get written consent to do electronic only
distribution. The consent form can be found in Aatrix Forms dropdown box where you
selected the 1095.
If electronic only is checked the an email address will need to be provided.
Step 7 – Final Checking
This step validates all the information and ensures that nothing is missing. It validates
completeness but not the accuracy of the data.
If you have any errors they will be highlighted on the grid and listed in the error box on
the right hand side.
You can fix any issues on this screen. There is no need to go back to previous steps to
correct problems.
After the errors are corrected, click next step to begin the printing/filing process.
21
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Step 8 – Printing and Filing
After you have validated the data you will go to the Options for Printing and Filing
22
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0

will be mailed one package with both W2 and 1095 information in it.
When processing the 1095 filing if you have an submitted W2 Complete Filing Option it
will be detected and you will be given the chance to combine the filings and receive the
discount.

The Form Viewer
If you have chosen to print forms you will continue through the wizard. The print button
on the Review Data Screen WILL NOT print your forms, only a list of what is to be
printed. You should click NEXT on that screen.
This will launch another screen and bring up the formviewer where you will have the
option to review the forms before they are printed. If the system seems to go away at
this point check behind other windows or applications.
After it comes up you will see a navigation bar up at the top.
The Navigation Bar
1) This tells you which particular form you are looking at. Pay attention to this to
detemine if you are printing the employee, employer, or record copies of forms.
2) Page Numbers - Many forms have multiple pages. Use this to navigate to
different pages.
3) Print Final vs Print Draft- Depending on your selections and the type of form, you
may only have one option or another. If you print final, it records the form as
having been printed. If you choose print draft, it does not.
25
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
4) Step Navigator- Use this to move forward in the process. If this looks good you
should choose the “Print Final” when you are ready to print or click Next if you
are just checking the forms. If in the process you discover an error, exit the form
viewer to go back and correct the problem.
26
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0

31
2016 Form 1095 User Guide Version 1.0
Efiling –
If you have chosen some type of efiling option, things will work a little different. You will
still go through the form viewer process to review your filings, but for the forms that will
be efiled, you will not have the print final option, only print draft. This will cause the
printouts to be watermarked not to file. This is done to prevent accidental duplicate
filings.
At the eind of the process you will be prompted to log into the Aatrix efile center to
complete your filing.
If you don’t already have an Aatrix account, you will see the option to create one.
If you have any questions about your Aatrix Efiling, if you have an account, what your
password was or related topics you can contact Aatrix directly at 1-701-746-6814 or
MIP Support cannot assist you with efiling issues as they are outside of the MIP
product.
The Aatrix knowledgebase has answers to common questions.
https://www.aatrix.com/support/knowledgebase/windows
The most common problems with Efiling relate to internet connection issues and
security restrictions. For more information on this see the Aatrix knowledgebase.
https://www.aatrix.com/support/knowledgebase/windows/troubleshoot/connection
MIP Support cannot troubleshoot connectivity issues.

Appendix B: Importing 1095 Information Into Aatrix
It is possible to import information into Aatrix. This import is limited to importing one
column at a time. If you wished to fill in multiple columns it will require multiple files and
multiple imports. One file and import for each column. You do the import by right clicking
on the column you wish to import and then selected the file.
Organizing the data to import is done by putting it into a Comma Separated Variable
(CSV) file with two columns. The first column would be the Social Security number (with
Dashes). Then you would have a comma followed by the value you wish to import into
the column.
Example: If you were importing the value “1A” for three employees in the All Year
Coverage offer the data file would look like this:
325-95-8157,1A 454-99-8765,1A 222-52-6464,1A
In the Aatrix grid you would right click on Coverage Offer and choose Import CSV File.
Then browse to the location of the csv file and select it.

The system will then import the values associated with the social security numbers.
The advantage of import is that the data in your CSV file does not have to be in the
same order as the data in the Aatrix grid. Information will be matched up by SSN.
Question: What happens if there is data in my CSV file that doesn’t have a
corresponding recording in the Aatrix grid?
Answer: It gets ignored.

Appendix C: Copying and Pasting Information into the Aatrix Grid
If you use a spreadsheet to prepare your information prior to putting it into the Aatrix
grid, it is possible to paste that information into the system. Copying and Pasting into
Aatrix is limited to one column at a time. Therefore you would have to Copy/Paste
Multiple times, one for each column.
First make sure that the Employee Information is sorted in the same fashion as your
spreadsheet. You can re-sort your spreadsheet or you can resort your information in
Aatrix. To do this, right click on the column you wish to sort and choose Sort Rows.
After the information is sorted the same in both Aatrix and the spreadsheet, copy the
column or range of cells in a column.
Right Click on the Column Header you wish to paste into and choose Paste.
This will paste the results into the column.

and choose COPY. Then paste it elsewhere.

Appendix E: 1095-B
Form 1095-B is required for Employers who are self insured regardless of size. The
printing and entry of 1095-B information is very similar to that of the 1095-C.
To access the 1095-B forms you would choose the 1095/1094-B option in Aatrix.
This will take you into the wizard. The steps going through the wizard are the same as
the 1095-C. The data information screen will look a bit different.
Some of the significant differences are that it tells you up top you are on the 1095-B
form. The Information grid only has one section, not two. There are only 4 steps up top
instead of 5.
As you go through the wizard you will have to enter different information and there are
different validations. The actual printing and filing is identical.
